Salmos 38

¹ +

² 38:1A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance. O LORD, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

³ 38:2For thy arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand falleth heavy upon me.

⁴ 38:3There is no soundness in my flesh because of thy anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.

⁵ 38:4For my iniquities have gone over my head: as a heavy burden they are too heavy for me.

⁶ 38:5My wounds are offensive, and are corrupt because of my foolishness.

⁷ 38:6I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.

⁸ 38:7For my loins are filled with a lothsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.

⁹ 38:8I am feeble and grievously broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.

¹⁰ 38:9Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.

¹¹ 38:10My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of my eyes, that also is gone from me.

¹² 38:11My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my affliction; and my kinsmen stand afar off.

¹³ 38:12They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.

¹⁴ 38:13But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.

¹⁵ 38:14Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.

¹⁶ 38:15For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.

¹⁷ 38:16For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.

¹⁸ 38:17For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.

¹⁹ 38:18For I will declare my iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.

²⁰ 38:19But my enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.

²¹ 38:20They also that render evil for good are my adversaries; because I follow the thing that is good.

²² 38:21Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.

²³ 38:22Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
